IVRO Advances Core Strategy to Make Non-Animal Testing Famous, Announces Fiscal Q1 2023 Results

Placentia, California--(Newsfile Corp. - February 8, 2023) - Today InVitro International (OTC Pink: IVRO), the 37 year pioneer developer and marketer of animal free testing methods, announced first fiscal quarter sales of $209,250, an increase of 14% over the same quarter last year. An operating loss of $31,169 was approximately 49% less than the prior years' first fiscal quarter operating loss and partially attributed to initial M&A activity. Our M&A activity has moved forward smoothly and according to plan thus far.

CEO W. Richard Ulmer observed, "Over the traditionally slower recent holiday months, we saw a rise in safety testing inquiries and sales. Taken together with the progress we have seen in our initial efforts to complete a merger, we view this period as promising for 2023. Our corporate emphasis will continue to be from the root of Philip Crosby's Quality Process – Do It Right the First Time."

IVRO's President, Atul Jhalani, added, "Just recently vegan products have found sales success in the cosmetics marketplace. It is exciting to think about several areas which for the first time may be impacted following U.S. Congressional passage of the '2021 Humane Cosmetic Act'. One of those areas could be chemical manufacturers who have not yet shifted away from animal testing. Another is that of existing laboratories which have not used in vitro test methods before. We have already seen a large laboratory on the East Coast announce it's launching of the first and only 100% vegan ocular irritation test. Of course, it is our Ocular Irritection®."
